These errors are  result of the original code being written in VS2015 and when opened in VS2013, the reformatted code shows errors. An update was posted with the errors fixed.

Can you explain function of new component SimpleWebServer?

Can you explain function of new component SimpleWebServer?

The SimpleWebServer is for viewing a screen shot of single page application via web browser. You simply add it to the form, then when you run the application, you can open a web browser and enter the IP address of the machine running AdvancedHMI.

The component uses the default web port of 80, which may not be available for use if your PC has other software using it. This can be worked around by changing the port to 8080, then when you use the web browser enter and address as such:

http://192.168.0.10:8080
